Anyone using yeast in their soil?

I’m ready to start a run indoors and plan on using soil with dry amendments. I’ve heard of using yeast in the initial soil mix and need some specifics. My understanding is there are basically 2 kinds of yeast….active nutritional yeast and Brewers yeast.
I plan on running 3 or 4 plants in my 2.5’x6’ space under a HLG 320 r-spec QB. I was thinking of making at least 2 different soil varieties and using yeast in one of them.
Which one should I use and am I OK with mixing it in dry??
Thanks for the help.

This is a new one for me.

What is your end goal; or what do you expect that yeast will bring to the table?

We know they're good with B vitamins, and when alive they produce CO2, but they would do that in the root zone and probably not enough to have any noticeable CO2 benefit.

Are you looking to bake biscuits in the soil?
Or making some dirt/root moonshine?

There are better microbes to use in your soil for growing cannabis, those types of yeast belong in the kitchen

Psst...generally biscuits don't have yeast in them to rise. It's done with baking soda and powder.

I'll check with my wife........she sometimes has that problem.

Omg with the technicalities... Ok bread or doughnuts then

Yeast is used to make bread. Baking soda and baking powder are in biscuits. Oh yeah, beer.

I was following the Fox Farms Ocean Forest thread and @Buddsbuddha suggested using it in one of his recipes.
Although I think it was being added to the soil mix days before and allowed to do its thing….whatever that is.

Maybe try microbes in the bread instead of yeast. Rock some bacillus loaf
Nice loaf

Sorry it was @Budzbuddha. I spelled it wrong.

Yeast would eat the sugar meant for microbes to eat.

So you're saying some would? Which ones should they avoid? Which ones would be appropriate?
